hoepfully it won't be 'watered down' in terms of comfort and handling...but who knows. we as usual won't get this hatch model...but who knows, maybe another variant? 
active damper will be nice, all civics will prob get it. but ugh i hope it doesnt look like the UK/EU tourer car, yuck.
http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/honda/civic...eb3c394a0374%26
 The 2015 Honda Civic Type-R is taking shape and our spy photographers have caught it testing against its key rivals.
Spotted on European roads for the first time, the new Type-R certainly looks a lot more menacing than the standard hatchback, as you would expect from a hot hatch that is reported to produce well over 300bhp.
• Honda Civic review
A large intercooler can be spotted through the wider grille and front air-intakes. This works together with the huge rear wing and side skirts to make it look almost as extreme as the touring cars from the BTCC.
Despite the extensive camouflage on the pumped-up bodywork, a new set of wide-bore quad exhaust pipes and high performance brake discs with red brake calipers are also clearly visible. It looks more like the extreme Mugen Type-R than a factory hot hatch.
The prototype was spotted testing in convoy alongside the 276bhp Vauxhall Astra VXR and the even more potent 345bhp Ford Focus RS500 Mark II, which proves that Honda is aiming to offer at least 300bhp in the new Type-R.
Although the Renaultsport Megane 265 was conspicuous by its absence, Honda bosses have stated previously that they aim to topple its Nurburgring lap record for a front-wheel drive car.
Honda has also ruled out an estate version based on the new Civic Tourer, claiming that the two cars are aimed at entirely different customers and that a crossover between the two made little sense.
Senior Market Researcher Patrik Ponec told Auto Express: “There is a big contradiction between the Type-R and the Tourer so I doubt we will ever combine the two… the concept of the new Type-R is a racing car for the road.”
The new hot hatch is being developed in Japan rather than by Honda Europe. However, the prototype in these shots was spied wearing UK plates, which suggests the brand is keeping a keen eye on the European market. The UK should be especially important to Honda because we buy more hot hatches than any other country in Western Europe and have the most demanding road surfaces as well.
These Honda Civic Type R spy pictures prove that testing is well under way but we are unlikely to see the new Civic Type R in production guise until the end of 2014, with a concept a possibility at the Geneva motor show next year.

doesnt look like it.
that car looks promising!!! as long as it's a mechanical LSD and it's priced right. I'd seriously be happy as shit.

^pricing  and yeah, they for sure have to do some trick diff just like the fucus RS
trick diff? you mean like ABS, traction control kinda like limited slip with one axle turning??
that sucks.
mechanical LSD makes a HUGE difference, torque steer is almost non existent.

we'll be getting this ...eventually (next year) 
mk7 gti
this is our euro-spec test car, we literally just put it on the road two days ago
this version has the "performance pack" which is 230hp (vs 220), 340 mm front rotors and a mechanical front lsd
although i noticed it also has some electronic adjustment for the diff setting so i still gotta look into that
260 ft-lbs of torque too
but the best thing about this car is the progressive steering
the more steering angle you give it, the faster the ratio becomes
it's like 2 turns lock-to-lock (wtf)
this is probably the best handling stock fwd car i've ever experienced
and easily, EASILY, the best feeling electric power steering rack this side of a 991

Don't doubt you at all on the steering feel.
But isn't that how all variable racks work? It works by having a finer tooth bitch for the beginning, and a larger, coarser tooth pitch towards the end of its travel for a quicker ratio.
And hang on...handles better than ITR? Whaaaaaat?
That is the best handling fwd car I've driven in showroom stock condition...but I have not tried Focus st/Fiesta st...
i loooove me some finer tooth bitch

My understanding is that traditional, hydraulic variable-ratio PS systems are actually the opposite:
the teeth get finer at the end, with the goal being to maintain consistent steering effort at the ends of the stroke (because you lose leverage at higher steering angles, and this would otherwise require much more effort at the ends)
with this system, though, because it exploits the potential of EPS, allows the rack to become more direct (rather than less direct) at the ends
the electric motor's level of assist is calibrated to provide the same steering effort throughout the entire range of travel
it's some kind of techno wizardry but all i can say is it works very well
the result is 2 turns lock-to-lock combined with zero dartiness at highway straightline speeds

So.. the Si is a pretty decent car.
I don't like the jellybean proportions. I'll never get over that.
I don't like the split dash.
The steering is shite.
And of course it could use a bit more power, and esp torque, but it's not tragic.
On the plus side, the shifter is incredible: precise, positive engagement into the gates, short throws, good spacing.
And the pedals are very well positioned for heel-toe.
I found myself goin up and down through the gears twice as much as I usually would, just for the fun of it.
Honda got those things bang on, but in my opinion the engineers need to improve the EPS setup in a big way.
And kill the jellybean. =)

sooooo...who here would actually buy a 2015/16 CTR...?  "so you're saying there's a chance......" I'd seriously consider it, but need pricing first. If it's gonna be a 50k civic, I will gladly pass up on that.
If a VW Golf R is $48,000 on the road
Civic Type-R will be similar price range

whatever's on the net is pretty good idea (thus far)...and well, we may not miss the boat this time around - nothing concrete yet  Yes you will if its still FWD. lolwut. What's wrong with fwd, and what do you propose honda do? Make a rwd type r? XD XD XD Don't be a drivetrain snob when you drive an auto sedan around town and your "racing" only happen on straight highways XD even one wheel drive can accomplish the same tasks bahahaha. I still think fwd is fun. Just needs to be setup well, and when it is, it is so easy to drive and rotate on demand. That coupled with low weight and no torque is tons of fun. Lots of gearbox rowing. I'd be excited to see the CTR hit our shores. But as is, I'm excited for the Focus ST. That machine is craaaaaazy. Too bad the interior is fugly.
oh snap

whatever's on the net is pretty good idea (thus far)...and well, we may not miss the boat this time around - nothing concrete yet Yes you will if its still FWD. lolwut. What's wrong with fwd, and what do you propose honda do? Make a rwd type r? XD XD XD Don't be a drivetrain snob when you drive an auto sedan around town and your "racing" only happen on straight highways XD even one wheel drive can accomplish the same tasks bahahaha. I still think fwd is fun. Just needs to be setup well, and when it is, it is so easy to drive and rotate on demand. That coupled with low weight and no torque is tons of fun. Lots of gearbox rowing. I'd be excited to see the CTR hit our shores. But as is, I'm excited for the Focus ST. That machine is craaaaaazy. Too bad the interior is fugly.
Meh it's Honda I'm not keeping any hopes high. They have nothing but shit boxes one after another for over the past decade. I'm not arguing FWD sucks...it's just Honda as a company is complete fail at this point in the "performance" department.

I dunno, that 2.0L turbo motor in there is a global engine (says Honda).
If Ford brought over Focus/Fiesta ST, why not Honda in their Type R? Similar category of car imo. And I'm seeing a lot of Focus ST's on the road now.

Honda in NA only puts out fucking mundane POS now and have been for over a decade now. They are way behind in tech. Christ look at the 2014 CRV. 5spd auto??? Are you fucking kidding me!

All this trash talk.
Someone put out some money already XD
My money is on type r making a return.
That motor is already slated to be a global engine. They look to be spending a lot of time developing it (at least, marketing propaganda suggests that). It would be silly to dump so budget on something which will only see limited markets. Not like Honda is big in Japan...

maybe they release the next 'Si' with this motor. a type-r is meant to imply a stripped down near race car, minimal creature comforts for the sake of performance. they'd probably sell more cars if it had the power, but also heated leather, sound deadening, Navi, A/C, etc. something heavily track tuned would either sell low numbers or be produced in limited numbers, and might not be worth the cost involved in getting it approved for NA roads.
i think there would be the appetite for a type-R in NA, but i'm just not sure that i would make economic sense.

Unfortunately, the latest Civic Type R, like its predecessor, won’t be offered in the U.S. as it is based on the Civic platform designed for the rest of the world. The good news is that we may see some of the car's hardware in the next-generation CR-Z.

I still don't doubt as much as others regarding this car's future in North America. Historically sure, Honda hasn't sent something like this here in a long time. But if Ford is sending Mustang to EMEA and APAC, and Fiat sent the Abarth here, and a market for fun cars long past is emerging (FRS), then why not bring this here. Even Mercedes brought the CLA here (AMG variant included!)--despite failures with past attempts at a cheapy benz.
And ok fine, Type R was lost money for every unit sold in the past. But it served a different purpose. That same purpose is needed once again with Honda's unexciting lineup. Just like what the FRS is/has done for Toyota.

latest from best car mag JPN on new CTR...
And here the "could-be-interesting" bits I found when reading.
• Previous mules already faster than current (until Leon goes on sale) fastest FF car on the Nurburgring, that is the Megane RS at 8:07.
• Ultimate performance goal set at beating the NSX time (7:56) when it's introduced to the market.
• Engine has enough power to spin the front tires up to 4th gear (myself wonder how can that be a good thing.... But for sure some folks will like it)
• Current stated specs are more than 280PS and 40.8 mkg, but wouldn't be surprised if by the time of production it had got very close to the current world's highest specific output (Mercedes A45 AMG, 180ps/l), which means 360ps for the DOCH VTEC DI TURBO Honda engine.
• When compared with Honda's current V6, the overall aim is 10% more performance with 10% better FE.
• The mule they tested past year had an "R" button, akin to modern F1 "overtaking" button, which increased turbo pressure unleashing the full power available in the car.
• Expected realistic wheel size when it reaches the market is 19".
• Despite its high performance credentials, FE remained important, and for that reason it'll be fitted with auto-idle stop tech, and deliver above 15km/L in the JP08 cycle (for reference, previous Gen EuroCTR was rated at 10.8km/l, so they are talking about 50% improvement).
• Expected to be built in the UK, and imported to Japan starting summer 2015, with a price between 3.8M and 4.2M JPY (for ref. past EuroCTR was priced at 3M JPY.
Other than that they make a brief mention to the rest of the turbo lineup, stating that:
• 1.0L should exceed current 1.8L torque while delivering over 20% improvements in FE. Likely to be used in the Japanese Fit.
• 1.5L is mainly focused in America, not likely to be sold in JP.
And that's about it, for whatever is worth 😊
um...damn (if true )

lol yeah cause paying $75k cdn for a 1-series M makes so much sense  well should it come, you'll pay more...my guess would be mid 30's? at least you'll get a lot of car for the money performance-wise with hopefully a decent interior lulz. it better have a very good trick front diff... the 4th gear wheel spinning seems to be a bit of hype more than anything.
The 1M was never $75k. Only idiots paid above MSRP for one. Car was listed under $55k if I remember right.
If this is seriously the best Honda can do nowadays that's really sad. They should just keep tapping into Toyota's market and keep producing the most mundane appliance cars for old folks.

I think you are recalling US prices.
It was 60+ here.
What's funnier is comparing a CTR to a 1M. 1M 2nd hand to this day is selling for more than it originally retailed for. We cannot say the same for any type R variant. 1M was so popular that the global demand pushed BMW's hand at producing more (iirc 2500 world wide?). 1M may be a shit track car out of the box, but for a collector/car guy/not really driving enthusiast, the 1M is in it's own league. Arguably the most collectable BMW within the past 20 years.
I love me some Hondas, but a CTR at 50k is not a very compelling arguement (though it can be argued the same way with the boss mustang being sold at that price too). But to put it differently: At the same price (50k) would one buy a boss mustang or a civic type r? It's hard to argue the sex appeal of v8 rwd + car with 50 years of "heritage" vs a boosted fwd track rat.

lol yeah cause paying $75k cdn for a 1-series M makes so much sense well should it come, you'll pay more...my guess would be mid 30's? at least you'll get a lot of car for the money performance-wise with hopefully a decent interior lulz. it better have a very good trick front diff... the 4th gear wheel spinning seems to be a bit of hype more than anything. The 1M was never $75k. Only idiots paid above MSRP for one. Car was listed under $55k if I remember right. If this is seriously the best Honda can do nowadays that's really sad. They should just keep tapping into Toyota's market and keep producing the most mundane appliance cars for old folks. I think you are recalling US prices. It was 60+ here. What's funnier is comparing a CTR to a 1M. 1M 2nd hand to this day is selling for more than it originally retailed for. We cannot say the same for any type R variant. 1M was so popular that the global demand pushed BMW's hand at producing more (iirc 2500 world wide?). 1M may be a shit track car out of the box, but for a collector/car guy/not really driving enthusiast, the 1M is in it's own league. Arguably the most collectable BMW within the past 20 years. I love me some Hondas, but a CTR at 50k is not a very compelling arguement (though it can be argued the same way with the boss mustang being sold at that price too). But to put it differently: At the same price (50k) would one buy a boss mustang or a civic type r? It's hard to argue the sex appeal of v8 rwd + car with 50 years of "heritage" vs a boosted fwd track rat.
Nope, I distinctly recall building one on BMW.ca when it was available.

Not sure what is special about turbo vtec.
That might've been special in 1996. But pretty much everything has variable valve timing now--included boosted ones.
See Ford's ecoboost - valve timing on both cams + turbo + direct injection + high compression. That would have blown some minds in the 90s XD
VW's 2.0T is the same thing. Under rated at 210hp...and it puts out something like 210hp at the wheels when dyno'd XD

Where the fuck is screaming? Son I am disappoint. I saw this today on reddit - you need to turn off adblock to watch the interactive video by honda. http://www.youtube.com/user/HondaVideo/   I really am liking the CTR-T. At this rate, it is becoming more unlikely that we'll get it here in N.A.
You won't buy it doe so what are you yammering about?

All the text you wrote after "lol at vaporware" essentially reinforces that it's vaporware @___@
no, cause i know change is actually coming lol, so just reinforcing that fact. wtf it is, no idea. the comments in the article don't necessarily know shit, just spewing the usual random internet opinions. but like any company, bottom line is turn it around and make $$$

2015 GTI (more Si level, not CTR even...) Base Price$32,895.00 CDN My Options$1,400.00 (the 4dr with better trim and NOT leather which is $1095 more) Freight & PDI$1,395.00 just sayin' 2015 WRX STI starting from $37,995, EVO's about the same, not incl. the +++ optiosn if you choose. those would be CTR level...so if CTR shows up here and runs you 35-39k, it's expected/fair.
I'm with you! I'd expect CTR to be 40k.
It isn't made in mexico like the gti XD Did anyone see the focus rs video doe?!

I want a GTD so bad as a DD. LNXGUY you are dead set on the Colorado Diesel to replace to wagon?
I'll never replace the wagon with a truck, if I gotta commute back into the city one day I'll be fucked. The only thing the Colorado diesel will replace is my S10 ZR2.
I'll drive me wagon until the wheels fall off.

When the DC2 ITR were in production, did they sell out like hot cake?
It was a $40K car after taxes, no?
In 2001 the final production year, did some dealerships stuck with unsold unit carrying into 2002 when the RSX was released?
that's way before my time here, but from what i know i believe honda (acura) had an allotment of cars they could bring in from JPN (way less than the USA as usual) and i believe certain years it sold out...but not all.
eventually they did all sell as 'new' though, but i doubt many dealers gave much discount off MSRP. no idea if there were any units carried over...doubt many. Canada's numbers for the car were quite limited. i believe 98-01 the price stayed the same, if not very close...$29k - $29,999 was the range i think, i'm quite sure it did not run you $40k even after tax+freight/pdi, no.
i talked with the a vp (now the current president) here about them a couple of years ago...he said they were in very high demand at the time. the market was strong at first, then i beleive there was another market down-turn nearing the end of the production run...so less money in ppl's pockets to spend.
a cool little tidbit he mentioned though - new R customers would get a special "key presentation" at the dlr with it being in a box or something like that (i think he mentioned a certificate of some sort as well, with the car's ID# o n it). it'd be fun to know if anyone knows someone who actually bought one new off the lot who could vouch, lol. oh, and also a friendly reminder to run 91+ octane only

i like it  - i mean yeah it's got the modern look finally and maybe a touch bland from certain angle (still not a huge fan of the front grill styling ugh). i like the rear end doe. from guys here who've played with it apparently it's a very nice step fwd vs. the old one and you definitely notice in the drive. fit and finish much nicer too. i just pray it doesn't have some of the new-car-issues we're seeing say...in some acuras LOL 
I'll just stfu and wait

What was the mileage on the 99.5 TDI when you got rid of it?
610k I should have driven it until it just stopped dead, but I couldn't pass up the price of the wagon.

Sure. My 03 civic is showing its age, and it still drives like a champ. However, the question is - how long can I have the car for? I miss the sound of the turbo spool. If I had a choice w/ the ford or a honda. I'd gladly take a honda reliability over a ford any day of the week.
However, having said that. If it's gonna be well over 55 to 60k+ OTD for a damn civic, I'll laugh.
I'll gladly settle for a detuned 2.4L turbo civic Si if CTR does not come to N.A.

How many kms do you have on the wagon? Almost 400k
the wifes Pontiac Vibe has an issue where the Digital Odo only goes to 299,999 before it stops working lol. Maybe pontiac thought these cars wouldn't go further than that

Id buy a CTR over an RS or R too. Even if they were down on performance from the other 2, the Civic looks better and will be 100% reliable. The R looks kinda boring and the RS looks like a hot mess inside and out.

^why no consideration for the bog standard wrx?
that motor is arguably better than the ej25. power delivery makes much more sense for street use! unless the rs/r/r/sti is being bought for track use, i'm not certain that there are clear advantages over the more standard offering.
If you just want power, any turbo car can be made to put down some serious power. even the gti is getting retarded dyno #s (even without a tune!)

Wow EJ25 issues.
Pls do tell. I am curious now XD
I know they suck in terms of heat management -- it only running something silly like 5 qts of oil doesn't help. But what's this about the internals?

The price is a huge deciding factor. The Civic Si sedan is selling for $26,850 MRSP, Golf R approx $39,995 MRSP, No price yet for Focus RS, but ST is selling for $28,499 MRSP. Gosh, I wonder how much the CTR will sell for IF Honda decides to shit on the pot and sell to NA.

as far as i know we're getting our own north am. version, most likely coupe and maybe sedan. plans have been flip/flopping over the past year. i THINK we may say a 5dr hatch CTR (we're getting base models) but of course not the UK/euro spec one exactly. it'd be nice if they send us LHD versions of that one, straight up lol. well the coupe in the pic is of course prototype, it'll be much more 'toned down' for the final edition but still aggressive. i actually don't mind it vs. the hatch, looks decent...paint is a bit much lol, but again it's proto for 'wow effect' marketing. i know the design/build guys were aiming for next gen civic to be at a high level (see entry level audi area)...so we'll see. c2k, time to pay up sorry i couldn't spill the beans lol...
what does the NA version look like? still need more specs. 50k civic? GTFO.

I still think c2k won't buy it
then pick my next car within the next year or 2. gotta replace my aging 03 civic. If it's going to be high 30s OTD, fine. but 45k OTD? yeah ok.
Think market segment. The CTR will price between a Focus RS and Golf R.
You think the CTR will sell for mid 30K after taxes? Doesn't a new Si cost low to mid $30K after taxes? So you can bet your ass the CTR will be high 30K or low 40K. But what do I know. I am not planning to buy one since I have the car I want for summer.
I really like the Ford Focus RS if I were in the market for a AWD Hot hatch

remember when a civic si was an aspirational car for young drivers?
since honda is playing catchup in this case (who would have ever thought honda would be playing catchup in the hot hatch segment...), i think they need to position this car in the same space as the ST and the GTI for sure.
turbo fwd, good chassis, smart diff, then give it ~280hp with a starting price of 32k so that there's something to talk about.
get the payment under 500/mo and maybe, just maybe, honda can start getting younger buyers drooling again

The car buying world is a different place now though. How many 16 to 24 year olds do you know that like cars the same way we did at that age? It's ooover, son. These little sporty cars are now really for us retro grouches to appreciate XD

Si MSRP is $26k~
CTR will push it to around $40k after taxes at least. Not completely out there price wise since it will be in GTI territory, but far from being in the same segment as the Golf R and Focus RS since this turd is FWD only. Talk about being late to the game. Ford has their ST which is much better compared to the current Si and now honda finally brings the CTR over but again watered down shit and isn't even in the same league as the RS.
Honda needs a real leader, not some fucking bean counting turd that obviously has no love for cars. please tell us more great one
We can all thank Ford for reviving hot hatches again.

the NAR version won't be the euro chassis that's already been shown/confirmed, but that doesn't mean there won't be a high-HP variant for north america also.
it will just be based on the north american/"world" chassis. still with a turbo engine, prolly do a few levels of tune for a few different market positionings.. right up to a type r or TR equivalent.

Rob's old car they look exactly the same. how am I supposed to know that? they actually dont. DR's have 4 holes in the wheel for the lugs. That's it. Rotas have 4 holes AND 4 oval shaped millings beside them. Also, rotas have more steps in the lip. Almost looks like it has provisions for wheel weights on the lip. 
brb..
ENHANCE!
yep, you're right I can tell by looking at the pixels and dat angle.

That has to be one of the cleanest shapes ever made. now it is, but when they first came out they were barftastic. So true. EG's are still my fav though. +1. eg's and CRX's started this all imo. ^i'd build one exactly like this with a kick ass turbo GSR or ITR motor under the hood.
Are those Spoon or Rota rims? /c2k

Honda’s 306bhp hot hatch sprints from 0-62mph in a claimed 5.7sec and will be exported to Japan; on sale in the UK now, priced from Ł29,995 29,995.00 GBP = 58,784.83 CAD British Pound ↔ Canadian Dollar 1 GBP = 1.95982 CAD 1 CAD = 0.510251 GBP LOL! FUCK THAT!
It'll probably be priced differently for our Market. Just because the UK price is x doesn't mean the CAD$ price will be x * conversionRate .

You do know that cars priced in the UK don't get price equivalently just by dollar conversion in Canada right? lol - if it did we'd be paying out the ass for many cars already here.
CTR should come in similar to STI/EVO pricing would be my guess, hopefully under those pricey VW Golf R or whatever versions. I'm sure the Escort RS or whatever model we have/get here will be the cheapest of the bunch.

Imagine you use the MSRP of any car in Hong Kong and converted to Canadian dollar. The car will cost double. smh
Even the CTR is priced at $30,000 CAD, you are not buying one anyways. So does it matter if it costs $58K or $30K?

Pls educate me more on my financial well being since you are SO sure that I won't be buying a new car anytime soon.
Tell me more abiut my house? Tell me more about my current civic? Let alone my spending habit?
Such smart. Much expert. So brilliant!
30k ctr? Lol. OK. But a 50k. Let alone 40k civic is out to lunch.

Priced same as STI/EVO? GTFO lmao!!! Fucking Hontard. lol why is that hard to accept? think impreza base, wrx then sti so you have civic base, si then ctr priced accordingly  unless you just have it stuck in your head that "it's a Civic brah"...the ctr is a different beast from what you'll get coming from north america and even the base models built in the uk.
I'm with you on this. Perhaps he is unaware that Sti's cost 35k XD

^Haha
as for STI.....
base sti is 38k plus usual tax/freight/pdi
sti sport is 40.5k plus
sti sporttech is 45k plus
i asked for a discount back in 08 model and they DO NOT BUDGE on price (this was 2 different dealers)
and the CTR interior will at least put both the sti and especially evo to shame - hey maybe even the older vette?!?
it's no audi by any means doe 
it'd be awesome to see the ctr come in sub $35k...which i doubt...
36-39.5 would be decent but my guess is 39-42k range prob. as 'harsh' as it sounds it makes sense since you get 'everything' in the car, there are no multiple trim levels. you pick a few options and take delivery.
those higher end Golf's end up being 40+k right?

No that is exactly my point. You get much more for the money with the STI over this front wheel drive pos.

Uhhhh yeah I guess. Call my cray doe, I pick a golf r over the ctr then.
I get fake 4wd when i want it, and a more upscale interior...and better all round use. I would take the golf over sti and evo also.
But above both those for 38k, I WILL TAKE A V8 MUSTANG KTHNX BYE

This is exactly what I am getting at. Who in the right fucking mind is going to pay $35k+ for this? Hontard is out of their fucking minds if it is priced past $30k.

Already wear glasses, so what's your point?
You like cheap knock offs and that's ok. No need to get all pissy about it.
You need new and better ones with a higher prescription. You didn't get that?

LOL shocker. 45 second track (basically an autox course), the lowest power, lightest car comes out on top.
o rly?
PLUS in the video, the guy is talking the whole time, and he only did 1 lap of each car (rather than a series back to back to take best time). Sooooooooo. Interesting. I don't buy it doe XD

Some NSX goodies:
Date: August 14, 2015 12:04
Submitted by: JeffX
Source: Acura Press Release
Credibility Rating: Not Specified
Aug 14, 2015 - CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA, Calif.
The next-generation Acura NSX is produced at the new, dedicated Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC) in Marysville, Ohio, using domestic and globally sourced parts. With trial production already underway and production start-up scheduled for spring 2016, this world-class manufacturing facility employs groundbreaking techniques in weld, body construction, body painting, final assembly and quality confirmation to ensure the highest levels of precision and craftsmanship.
More details on the unique and innovative manufacturing processes at the PMC will be rolled out over the months leading up to the start of production, but the following highlights of the new facility were shared during the 2015 Monterey Automotive Week:
Innovative blend of people and technology: throughout the PMC, NSX production is centered around the skills of approximately 100 experienced engineers and technicians building the NSX to precise levels of quality and craftsmanship.
All-glass quality confirmation center: A total quality approach to production is evident not only in the mindset of every PMC technician, but in the very design of the facility, with an all-glass quality confirmation center located in the middle of the manufacturing floor. This allows for technicians from every department to monitor all aspects of a vehicle as it moves through the entire production process.
World's first weld technology: the world's first use of all robotic MIG welding employs eight robots to apply approximately 900 MIG welds. This surgical welding process results in a space frame that is incredibly precise, in addition to being ultra rigid and lightweight.
Craftsmanship: hand craftsmanship complements high tech robotic processes throughout the assembly of the NSX:
Every bolt on the NSX is hand started by a PMC technician
Exterior body panels are installed manually at the end of assembly and from the inside out to ensure 100 percent symmetrical side-to-side fitment
Lasers are used to find door hem edges, fenders and door gaps in order to install all exterior panels without requiring adjustments
Master engine builders: the NSX's 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V-6 engine with dry sump is hand assembled by master builders at the nearby Anna, Ohio engine plant. Each engine takes over six hours to complete and is machine balanced.
Each NSX power unit — engine, 9-speed dual clutch transmission with direct-drive electric motor, and front Twin Motor Unit – is bench-tested and broken-in (the engine to the equivalent of 150 driving miles) to ensure that every NSX is track-ready upon customer delivery
The engine build process was benchmarked against some of the company's race engine programs to ensure the highest possible quality and performance standards were achieved
-i only made it to the front entrance and got to see some of the track lol. they had some benchmark cars torndown/tested against too which was cool. 458, R8 and GTR i know for sure, not sure what else. nice to see there's a lot of 'hands on' aspect to the fit/finish of the nsx being completed.

I meant for a hybrid, sorry thought i wrote that in my orig post. (hence my other comments above re. 'tuning' the exh note. obviously you're not gonna get the rumble of a lambo v10 or beautiful note of a ferrari 8 or 12. my guess is it'd be similar to a gtr (but better)? just saying it's not even in production yet and at full pop they'll bring something more to the table than "an accord with exh" lol. you're not hearing the finished product.

http://www.autoblog.com/2015/08/26/honda-civic-debut-september-16-official/
Yeah, LA and Detroit will be the 'release' of it, on sale prob not till later this year for the sedan only.
Coupe is prob early '16....then Si sometime in 2016, then CTR...no time for that.

I reserve judgement till it's out.
That's a mule, so it isn't running many of the new body panels...thus it being a fugly monstrosity.
See also the ND mule. Similar nastiness.

It looks like a huge improvement over the last few. Interior looks really nice. Exterior is pretty good too, but yeah, those tails are a bit much.
I bought a '16 RDX to go with the TLX to hold me over if/when the CTR ever comes out lol.

yeah tonight was the launch in LA for it. they're going Audi A3 level car so it should be a huge step up vs. the current civic.
"Honda looked at wide swath of C-segment vehicles, including key benchmark the Audi A3 for its ride, ride quality, steering, handling and noise, vibration and harshness levels, to build “the world’s best C-segment vehicle,” Mendel says.
The development team wanted the Civic’s sedan’s hip point at the same level as the Audi TT sport coupe’s, which involved lowering the Honda’s floor, instrument panel and engine, and re-engineering the suspension."
lol but anyway, let's see how the end product does on the road, see if any hiccups arise. after the crap they put out in 2012 they knew they couldn't cut corners with this one. it'll probably sell buttloads as usual. Honda's funny because with these full model changes they kills off acura sales (ILX) lulz.

When I see pictures of it I think it's saying this to me:

I guess I would have to see it more in real life. It's just the looks that bother me.

cars getting more and more fat/bloated looking. where are the lean and trim looking cars?!? EF and EG and EK/EJ looked awesome back in the day.
that was then this is now i guess.
tech but moreso design and safety come a long way since then.
materials and stamping also changed quite a bit too.

I dunno, I kinda like the Ridgeline. Aside from the new Chev and Taco, choices are limited in a mid size truck. Considering that 99% of the trucks on the road are mall-crawlers not rock-crawlers, it makes sense. 1500lbs bed and prob 5000lbs tow will be more then enough for most people. Good on gas and Honda reliability and quality, whats not to like unless youre a typical dude-bro small dicked truck owner.

Focus RS will push the CTR's shit in
Over and over again. Honda, what a joke always behind everyone for the past 10 years.

shrug. i'd take an rs with it's active rear diff + awd over a ff ctr putting down less power. i suspect pricing will be similar.
brb going to ford XD
that said, i am excited to see how the ctr pans out

Agreed but it's good for everyone - more cars coming out with better performance and more power. I remember when I was excited to drive a 127hp civic hatchback lol.

I just built a 2016 Focus RS on Ford.ca, it came out to $56,121 taxes included.
MSRP $46,969
Total of Options $995 (blue paint)
Total Fees $1,700 (AC tax and Freight)
Available Incentives $0
Taxes $6,457
NET PRICE $56,121
Let's wait for CTR pricing since it is the same class as the RS
my guess is it'd probably be similar. honda usa and canada have to import them from the UK for resale, not sure how the $ works out behind the scenes but hopefully our crap dollar now doesn't big the price even more.
the fukus is an awesome car, love everything they did with it AND brought it here, should be epic battle for it vs. ctr. i heard some guys testing the RS already ran into issues with the diff or tranny? at least we'll know we'll see ctr's on the road after 5+yrs...the ford, probably not so much. :p
love how you can hoon the rs...that rwd *feelz* in an awd is awesome. im sure the ctr will be barrels of fun even as ff, with its own trick diff. usually what honda lacks in hp they make for in handling...it's been like that for years and so far that's the case with the ctr, let's see if it holds true when they hit the road. shit at least they have SOMETHING now worthwhile lol.
hopefully the Si turns out to be more "bang for the buck" for the average customer. it'd be great if it has the 2.0L turbo detuned...then some reflash and suspension mods, you have ctr/rs fighter for half the price. i'm sure we'll see tons of pre-mature worn diffs? haha...no idea if they'd use the same as CTR, my bet is no.
mind you 8/10 buyers of these cars won't see the track and the most beating they'll get is local roads and hwy driving lol.

^  in other news, been driving a tlx v6 awd with winters for a bit...man in the snow the past few days, thing is awesome. hammer it off a stop sign turning left or right, grips nicely to get you going (duh), feel the system working and gradually as you make the turn the tail slides out about halfway thru, just enough to make it faux-rwd for all of 3 seconds...lay off the gas and you're good to go. i was surprised how much bias went to the rear  man my friend got the v6 sh-awd and i drove it the other day. thing boogies, it's actually pretty damn quick. i heard that it hooks like a mofo when you put it in sport + mode, activate the brake hold and floor it.
that it does.

Is it a rwd bias? I've noticed a positive difference between my car (rwd bias that's 30/70 and goes to 50/50) vs a lot of other awds I've driven with a fwd bias. I hear really good things about the sh awd but don't know much about it.

My TLX feels quicker off the line then my Gen did. The brake-hold line lock is great. Handles great too, just needs some better tires. The stock all seasons howl like crazy when pushed.

Is it bad when the nicest car in your lineup is the minivan? Maybe not exactly, but close enough...
The designers from Honda - and especially Acura - should've been fired years ago.

you know it takes until the minor-model change (or full model change) to make the lineup cohesive right doe?  hence why i mentioned 'by 2020'. but whatever man i just have to fix broken shit, not make it lol. superman haha. never thought of that...but now if wayne ever buys one he can re-design the front grill to make it into a superman logo
So they are on a 15year plan? Come on man, who fucks up like that. What happend to cars like the Legend coupe?
When I first saw the GLE from the side I thought it was a X6 LMFAO. So ugly, but not Acura ugly.

The grill is better than before but that doesn't say much. What's with the mustache-looking thing under the grill. There are so many ugly cars on the road nowadays.

It's a smart ad for it's target though. We just know too much vs the average consumer.
I do have to say they've done a great job with the looks for that level of car (too bad the reliability hasn't got any better)

Outgoing or not, the on-power push is not going to change.
It's a high torque, high hp fwd car. Touch that pedal and it's push city. It doens't work in all situations. Such is life of a car of this nature.
That best motoring video though, that course that they were on simply exasperated the understeer though - they had to be on power to get a good time--at the expense of chewing up the front tires.

I sat in an NSX at my dealer the other day, its definitly not designed for a big gweilo like me lol. Sweet car otherwise. Very small in person. Sounds mean too.
CRV looks decent. More upmarket for sure. Id like to see an Acura version of it or the HRV.

hhhhhhnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggg
http://bringatrailer.com/listing/1997-acura-integra/
This Acura Integra Type R is one of just 320 examples built for the US market in 1997 and is finished in Championship White over black cloth with 80,356 miles from new. This two-owner example was traded in direct to Bridgewater Acura in New Jersey, who is now offering it for sale. The car has been left mostly stock with the only alterations being a Vibrant exhaust system, new StopTech rotors/pads all around, and Goodridge brake lines. Although the included Carfax report is accident-free, the car has had some body and paint repair on the front-end as detailed below, and it remains in good cosmetic condition overall. A recent service was just completed and this Type R is now offered with a clean New Jersey title.
This ITR was traded in directly to Bridgewater Acura by its second owner, who purchased a four-door vehicle for practicality reasons. Of the 3,823 Type R’s produced for the US market, just 320 were made for the 1997 model year and all were painted Championship White.
Although the included Carfax report shows no accidents, the selling dealer points out that the factory VIN tags are missing on the front fenders, front bumper, and driver’s door. The hood, passenger door, rear hatch, and rear quarter panels retain their tags. Based on inspection, it appears that the front and some of the side of the vehicle has been repaired/repainted, but no evidence of structural damage has been found. The selling dealer describes the paintwork on affected panels as a nice but not perfect, with the rest of the car presenting nicely. A small crack in the front lip is shown above on the passenger-side. eiiiiihhhh
Out back, this ITR looks clean with the seller mentioning the rear bumper’s fitment is slightly off and could use a small adjustment as seen above. A Vibrant cat-back exhaust system has been fitted and reportedly gives the car a nice growl at idle and under power.
Factory 16″ alloy wheels are wrapped in Dunlop Direzza DZ102 tires with plenty of tread remaining according to the seller. The braking system was just addressed with new StopTech rotors and pads at all four corners in addition to the fitment of new Goodridge brake lines.
The ITR-specific black cloth seats with red stitching look to be holding up well with some typical wear on the driver’s outer bolster and thigh support. All surfaces appear to be in clean condition.
The center armrest-mounted Type R placard is shown above.All instrumentation, lighting, and features are said to be in solid working order including the optional A/C that reportedly blows cold. The interior has been left stock down to the factory radio.
Under the hood, the factory 1.8L B18 inline-four makes use of Honda’s famed VTEC system and was quoted at 195 horsepower at 8,000 rpm and 130 lb-ft. of torque at 5,700 rpm when new. Combined with a close-ratio 5-speed manual transmission, these cars are known to have excellent performance with a sub-2,600 lb. curb weight.
The engine has been left completely stock, with the factory front strut tower brace pictured above. Being a Northeast vehicle, some corrosion and oxidization is present on various engine bolts and components according to the seller. A recent service included an oil change, new battery, ABS sensor, and a lower ball joint. The engine is said to run nicely with no current mechanical needs.

Orange M3 with a claims history?
No thanks.
Yeah but it was just a 'light' tap and the bulk of the repair cost was the aftermarket exhaust lol

Maybe u laugh because it's beyond restoration? XD
The frame rails are rotted, and suspension hard mounting points are also rotted.
Floor pans are good, but the hard points are bad.

^they won't shit until early spring '17 anyways. in other news, the NSX drives like a fucking champ in heavy rain, hwy and backroads. so awesome how you can feel the change in suspension as you drive as you change the drive mode setting (along with noise and throttle/power response and steering which surprisingly does not feel 'detached' like so many new cars). funny too on the LCD cluster though. redline starts at 7500rpm showing 8k rpm max. when you click it over to sport+ mode the whole dial rotates counter-clockwise and a 9k max pops up and the bar elongates...redline still stays at 7500rpm though. oh and everything goes red from blue. EV quiet mode is cool, so quiet but still enough power to drive with but batt doesn't last very long. sport mode is your general setting, sport+ wakes the car up bigtime then track mode is beast mode.
I have zero experience with it but the motortrend best drivers car review said it wasn't engaging it was like a video game. Goes to show you real life and reviewers are often not in line

well when you're "on it" it's pretty damn engaging lol. mind you those reviewers have also driven every supercar under the sun so i'm sure they know what's up and will compare it to cars that are more engaged. IMO that'd be the usual ferrari, lambo (maybe, since those are now just nicer audi's) and porsche. but such is the new 'hybrid-supercar' and that's just part of what you get i guess...detachment to a certain degree.
Chris Harris showed in his video review the NSX was more than video-game-like in his track time with it and when you're in track mode the car doesn't nanny everything down like he or one would have expected from a playstation-like car...so that was good to see. so it would appear it still has that fun factor when you're in track mode and at the car's limits at least.
BUT yes, I i will say the car was almost to well mannered even in sport+ mode to feel or sound like a true engaged car with 'dem feelz'. (for reference the 1st gen GTR I drove a couple of times felt was nothing special aside from speed and handling. also not engaging and it sounded like ass, oh and the tranny was just crap). friend let me try his cayman S (no stick sadly)...now that was engaging
hoping into the type-r 30mins later was a funny difference. ironically it still puts just as big a smile on my face vs. ANY other car out there, even that monster. i was dying for low-end power though, like holy shit it felt EXTRA saaaaaaaaad after leaving that beast lol.
now if/when the type-r model comes out, that'll be a different story

To NSX-T or not to NSX-T???
It's always been a childhood wet dream. I would be getting rid of the M3 for this? What to do!!!
Yeah NSX-T is faplicious. Is it a US car? (not that it's worth buying there anymore given our shit dollar now). Dooooo iiiiit...if you can give up the room of the M that is.
Is it a 95/96 3.0L car or a 97+ 3.2L
I assume it's not an 02+ as those are still pricey.

There's 3 on trader that I'm considering.
'91 21,000kms
'91 103,000kms
'95 80,000kms
Targa would be cool, but I prefer black top and it's the Senna one after-all. Any known issues with these? They seem pretty bullet proof. Too bad the dollar sucks a bag of dicks right now otherwise options are so much better.

Snap ring is the one the NSX guys will tell you ZOMG RUN AWAY FROM.
In reality it's a non-issue at this age.

As for overall reliability, my car had almost 160K kms on it, and the new owner drove it from Toronto to Calgary without a single issue.

Yup, was time to change it up after 6 years. Only having room to store one car is a bummer
Power was meh at best. Gears are really long on the 5-speed which doesn't help. 6-speed swap, or a different final drive would have helped but I was too much of a purist and didn't want to get into doing those kinds of mods.
The sound and handling were addictive though, and there's very few cars out there that look as gorgeous as the NSX does. Never took it out without being flooded with thumbs-up and compliments about it.

LOL at 0-60 XD XD XD
The other difference is in-gear acceleration. It will absolutely not compare to the M in that department. Straight line is only a part of the story doe.
Who knows, NSX might even drive better than a BRZ

The power part is what I'm afraid of. I don't need the car to be stupid fast, but at least feel exciting when it climbs the revs. Like the M, it keeps pulling all the way to 8400 and sounds amazing doing it. To me it's not fast, but ample power to keep it fun.
The '91 NSX is easily 1+ second slower to 60, man that would be noticeable. I really need to drive one to see though.
Easy there Lewis Chinamilton

to Jon's credit, he hated the s2k for the lack of power.
but oddly, he likes the m3...and it delivers power identically IMO.
So how the NSX will fare remains to be determined.

300lb ft for 1000lbs more. Meh. How much torque does it actually have over the max? I bet they may not feel too different when you are really wringing the thing out. Eds car feels similar to my car despite being down lots of torques too XD brz is benchmark

Seen an all black one on the road, It looked sleek. Didn't even notice the grill, but I'm sure Mugen/Honda will have a sports version for the JDM market.
was it a chinese dude in markham?
i seen one rolling around all blacked out.
even black circle face risky would approve.

/not bad obama face
TORRANCE, Calif., Oct. 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The Acura NSX has been named Road & Track's 2017 Performance Car of the Year, besting eight of the world's finest sports cars by exhibiting a potent mix of performance, style and emotion.
The Acura NSX won this year's competition largely thanks to its unique driving experience. According to the feature in Road & Track, "For the first time in a hybrid automobile of any price or capability, technology has been placed firmly in the service of emotional involvement rather than in place of it." The magazine goes on to say, "Everything about the car—from the way in which the brake-by-wire pedal lengthens its travel when the brakes are hot to the manner in which the mid-mounted V-6 permits itself a bit of the ol' barbaric yawp when it's winding out in fourth gear—is intended to enhance the driver's involvement."
Acura NSX Named Road & Track 2017 Performance Car of the Year
"Every aspect of the new NSX—acceleration, braking and cornering—is a precise, new experience," said Jon Ikeda, vice president and general manager of Acura. "Having the NSX recognized by Road & Track's esteemed group of evaluators is not only a great honor for the car, but a testament to the skill, determination and challenging spirit of our team—we are immensely proud."
Now in its fifth year, Road & Track's Performance Car of the Year award is chosen based on testing that takes place over the course of four days, two of which are dedicated to the back roads of Kentucky and Tennessee and two of which are spent on track at the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
To be considered for the competition, cars need to be brand new or significantly revised for 2016. During the four-day testing process, the Road & Track editors and writers evaluate each car based on a combination of emotion, performance and value.
For the performance evaluation, editors take note of acceleration, braking, handling, shift points, sound level and weight, accounting for the weather conditions present during testing. They also evaluate the engine, transmission, drivetrain, steering, tires and brakes.
The 2017 NSX launched in the spring, challenging conventional supercar thinking with a three-motor, 573 horsepower, twin-turbocharged Sport Hybrid Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) powertrain[i]. Produced exclusively at the Performance Manufacturing Center in Marysville, Ohio, the Acura NSX is the only supercar manufactured in America[ii].
The 2017 Acura NSX that won the competition featured Valencia Red Pearl Exterior paint with Semi-Aniline Red Leather and Alcantara® Power Seats, the Carbon Fiber Exterior and Interior Sport Package, Premium Audio, Signature Y-Spoke Wheels, Carbon Fiber Roof and Rear Decklid Spoiler, Carbon-Ceramic Rotors with Black Brake Calipers, Pirelli Pzero Trofeo R 245/35ZR 19XL front tires and Pirelli Pzero Trofeo R 305/30ZR 20XL rear tires. The MSRP of the tested 2017 Acura NSX was $201,160. The 2017 Acura NSX starts at $156,000.
The Acura NSX competed against eight other cars: Audi R8 V10 Plus, BMW M4 GTS, Corvette Grand Sport, Jaguar F-Type SVR, Lotus Evora 400, Mercedes-AMG C63 S, Nissan GT-R NISMO and Porsche 911 Turbo S.

I'm sure Mugen/Honda will have a sports version for the JDM market and Nextmod will have a knockoff a week later for the CDM market. Fixed

, the Pacifica is definitely nicer and a step up than the current generation of Grand Caravan/Town & Country
As it should be.. it's $20,000 more.

New Si looks saweeeeeeet.
LSD, active shocks, active steering, turbo, vtac. Interior looks nice.
Coupe looks better than the hatch too. All in all nice - not as busy looking as the CTR.

I kinda like it. All the fanboys on the CivicX forum are losing their shit because its only a 1.5T lol.
The Focus ST and the GTI have more hp, yadda yadda yadda kinda talk. Most of the comments are solely focused on engine size even though no power figures or engine details have been released.
The normal '17 Civic is already faster then the last gen Si, so Im sure this new one will be even quicker. Lighter, more reliable and better looking then the Focus and VW probably too.

yup - i have no issues with the 1.5 direct injected turbo.
It'll be a fun car. And it has a real LSD - not something the focus st can say it has - nor would it have active dampers either.

Yeah like more superman grills? More fucking jewels in the headlights? Why stop at 3 per headlight for the low beams? Might as well go all out and do a cluster like the eyes of a fly. 
the more asians i can shine bright headlights at the better, hopefully enough light will get into those slanty eyes of yours!

Fucking Honda!
The new Si won't be available until next year. Got a co-worker whose Civic Si lease is up. But since there's no replacement Si, what's he going to do? He's on a lease extension while he's trying to figure out what to get. But how long can that go on?
Why is Honda waiting so long to bring their new Si to market? With the 2 year gap, they'll lose a lot of existing Si customers.
ermehgeeeerrrrd. it happens, production delays are common especially for full model launches. but guess what it's usually not the factories 'fault', it's suppliers. if they can't get all the shit needed to build the car it won't happen. if the lines ever gets held up it's huuuuge money. ironically the 'new way' of building they are actually building / releasing cars faster than ever before (which leads to more issues i have to fucking clean up lol). in addition, since it's a low sales volume unit it's not as big a deal if it's delayed vs. high output/selling models. Si will be spring with the CTR as i understand it.

Yay comparing a brand new car to one that is 10yrs old. Such achievement!!!
So what does that say about your 50 year old design you just bought?

You're an idiot. Never knew 911's were still based on the exact same chassis as the beetle.

I didn't say 80 years, I said 50 years!
But it's interesting to see what triggers you.

LOL hey that's actually true and actually applies given the timeline to make such a car...they changed design a few times along the way. you're always 'behind' by the time release time comes along to a point.

speaking about the new nsx, local dealer finally got a red one in. holy hell that car is hawt as fuck. pics don't do it justice, when you see it in real life, you see the intercoolers behind the side vents, the exposed engine, the massive flipping brakes and the sharp lines plus dat CF roof. sick, sick car.

When we got Acura North America as one of our main sponsors for the show they trailered in a blue NSX from Ohio IIRC. Car was sick, we kinda felt bad after because our other big sponsor brought a LaFerrari and nobody even cared about the NSX at that point lol
From a supercar POV, I'd love an NSX tho.

That Kita Stinger is hot.

I think one of their current leads is a former Audi guy. The Stinger almost has a suble A7 look to it. Almost looks like it has a hatchback too.

911R != GT3.
I'm not sure that anyone who gets what a 911r is would be upset about the gt3.

911R is limited production and will double in value in a short time. It's the GT3 RS 4.0 of today.
Nobody who actually managed to get an R will be crying.

I looked at an Si Sedan recent. The fake vents kill it for me.
So instead I have a different 2018 Honda product inbound.

That Civic is so damned ugly. There hasn't been a nice Civic since the EK.

Right? I'm torn... we made fun of cars that were modded in this fashion 15 years ago... now we're suppose to get hard over the looks of the car? I want to love it, 17 year old me would probably love it.. but I just can't get past the looks... the golf R is the obvious choice at that price point, it just looks classy/classic.
That being said, reviews like this sway my decision a bit...
Once upon a time, Honda made the worlds greatest front drive car in the shape of the Integra Type R... Well, they've done it again.

It seems like the Civic Type R may have lost a bit of its signature brutality with this generation, but the car’s undoubtedly still got character and it most certainly demands respect

i personally dig the type r.
Super awesome.
the new si (coupe) is very nice too.
The death of the k series is sad though - the FG civic is the corner stone of an era.

^except the haldex cant take the power and likes to explode
And golf r is "awd" with open diffs vs trick diff in a 2wd car. The CTR is the true performance automobile here. Though golf r is the better street car to live with--and 99% what people want anyways

Civic looks stupid with all the fake vents. It's like Honda hired someone from hot wheels and said go nuts.
on ctr every vent/scoop is functional.

I like it, there I said it lol
Yes the big fake plastic mesh grills could have been done better, but most cars seems to have them.
If I had 40 plus k to buy a new car, it would be on the top of my list. BUUUUT I would never pay over sticker for one

I think it's a pretty amazing car in many way, it sounds like they've managed to keep the power under control for fwd. I would still give major kudos to Honda for making the effort. But just like Hatorade, I can't get past the looks. Too over the top, a little too much Erebuni/Shogun going on.

^not really
priced almost exact same as Golf R and STI sport (STI spot tech is 45,300! lollerskates). mitsu EVO has been killed off. focus RS 48k!
and the CTR will actually last past 150k km's :P and not over heat diffs
Front wheel drive compared to awd?
Come on! You get less for your ninety with this fake vent king.

i disagree.
trick diff, trick shocks. there isn't anything wrong with 2wd.
it's the question of...do you want more refinement aka golf r, or a real sport focused car aka ctr. on the circuit, this thing is going to rape all the things.
and it's not like there is a good value proposition for any halo car.
gt3 included XD XD XD

dis doe......................
http://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/first-drives/a10229897/chevrolet-camaro-zl1-1le-first-drive/
holy shitballs of fire....and comes in cheaper than gt3 i assume.
re. CTR, rumouuurrrr is jpn is thinking about a future AWD ver. but who knows.
also the way the susp adjust in unison with the diff to control any understeer and trq steer is unreal apparently (if you track it).

Okokok I like the car, but there is no special sauce noted in that article. That front end design (suspension) is not new, using brakes to help the car steer is something the focus st already does, and a helical diff is something an si has. Not to mention, every modern euro car pretty much has a flat underbelly and even aero fairings for the control arms...and some even go so far as to shape the muffler so that it is integrated into the diffuser (see frs). Soooo it's a nice car, but that car throttle site just listed a bunch of plebeian stuff :(. Is there anything better that shows the tech side of it all XD

Screaming took me for a ride (dude is as a bigger Honda fanboy IRL, just sayin'), car is pretty quick/tight feeling. Fit and finish is nice inside, seats are amazing. Surprisingly it comes with some crazy speced tire size, IIRC 255/30/20, that's like S4 spec
Looks, meh
FWD, subjective, for me once going rwd or awd with sport diff, no chance of going to fwd again, don't care how hot the "hot" hatch is.
I like it for what it is, but honestly can't see the same following like the ITR has. Car is 2 decades late imo, and the over the top ricer looks might scare people off. This is obviously just my opinion tho, in the parking lot random fanboys were gawking at it, so maybe it has a fighting chance.
If I was 10 years younger I'd love it minus the rear wing. I think they can be made to look pretty good with a light jeff treatment.

WHOA that's a great PR ploy. They just won a customer for life (i'd think!).
I'm sure the new owner appreciates his elevated insurance rates... type r vs hatch

lol $6500 for a create engine? you can build and boost a K for that. Including the cost of the motor? I think not.
pfft ya man. ok maybe like $500 more? and you'd make a shit ton more than 300hp.

On this episode of Ignition presented by Tire Rack (http://www.tirerack.com), Jethro Bovingdon is joined by four-time IndyCar champion and Indy 500 winner Scott Dixon to test the new Honda Civic Type R. It is the first Civic Type R to make it officially to U.S. soil, is the current front-wheel drive lap record holder at the Nürburgring, and is priced at less than $35,000. So has the long wait for Honda’s hottest hatch been worth it? Can a front-wheel drive car eclipse the AWD Focus RS, Golf R, and Subaru WRX STI? Join us on the road and at the Streets of Willow Springs racetrack to find out.

Honestly, Acura has been good to me. No major issues, they have all been pretty solid, great sales and service experiences. Wife likes the Acuras too.
My Hyundais in the past were kinda meh at times and Id prob go a G70 before a Stinger.
I do however really like what Adi is putting out these days. My neighbour has a new S4 and that shit is sick lol.

Will there ever be a car again where the navi / "media system" is better integrated into the dash instead of it looking like a fucking iPad duct taped to the car?
Even though the screen maybe smaller - at least you can see wtf is on there on a sunny day when there's a bit of coverage by the dash.

1's of people will care about a FWD turbo sports sedan...arguably the most competitive vehicle category. Better be awd with rear bias or it will be another RLX, 2 sold ever, 1 was demo.

The ctr is so ridiculous that those time attack lap times it put down are nearly identical to the time set in a mclaren mp12 whatever on Hoosiers only a few years ago.
The mclaren already drives itself. The ctr is another level XD

the ass end of the tlx looks so good.
i really like these cars and give it a double take - whenever the rare chance of seeing an aspec on the road presents itself.

what’s msrp on an a-spec? edit: $39k CAD just checked.
$50k CAD is a bit steep just for superficial bells and whistles and a X of 360 plaque, with no power upgrades. $10k premium. LMAO.
edit: < $500 / month with $0 down is decent though. may consider it as a next car when one of our daily dies.

The design of this "new" TLX is so generic. Lets just add more angles and large nostrils/grills cause angry car is in. Much sport!!!

As a TLX owner I kinda agree with you, but I’ll reserve judgement till I see the production version.

seen it 'around'. looks good, much 'roids lol. but yes it is a touch toned down from concept. it is entirely new gen so nothing like the old. meanwhile, interesting meetings re. automotive industry in ONT and Canada. man the landscape is going to look veeerrryyyyy different by 2025. not just for honda but many others as well. certain companies (some jap some US) better get with it re. electric tech else they're gonna be fucked. mind you i am worried 75% of the cars for sale by 2025 may be fucking snorefest city... - let's hope not. GM and Ford are pretty much done selling cars in north america (as we knew), everything will be phased out soon except for some truck models...
at this point, I couldn't careless. It would be nice if cars were affordable again rather than offering financing up to 8 years and until then I'll just hold onto my aging cars until the body starts to rot away.

Well technically it ends up being us because we have (supposedly have) 50k to buy one looool. But then again today's 25 to 30 yr olds have mommy and daddy money to assist with such a purchase. The looks of course appeal more to them as we know.

Meanwhile over at bmw...
Loooooool
BMW is disgusting now, so are most manufacturers. Nobody has a real good looking car as they all have some derpy shit going on. Whether it's a horrible grill or headlights or back end...it's all shit. Everyone is racing to the bottom it seems.

it'd be awesome if they bought back the prelude, teg or tsx again. (lol ILX)
titty and i were just talking about this on sunday. but given the car culture nowadays, i don't think anyone wants one other than us old geezers. all the young people wants are bmws, mercs, etc.
all i want is a fun high revving 4 banger that's good on gas and isn't gdamn ugly. maybe i'm stuck in the 90's.

Give me a raw mechanical car to drive. Forget drive by wire, electronic stability control, and driver assist program.
Nothing but machine and skills to drive.

v6 turbo TLX - 355hp/354 trq , 10spd auto decent but not crazy i know. i know it DOES easily make more power but detuned for reliablity of course. i'm sure it'll deliver the power nice and at least handle well with indepedant rr susp. not sure re. price but apples to apples power/weight i assume it goes up against the likes of the S4. not sure what model benz/bimmer but i'm sure we can google that (lol can't compare to m3 that car has gone to the next level). a basic stage 1 reflash and you're at 400hp anyhow https://www.autoblog.com/2020/07/30/2021-acura-tlx-horsepower/
10K cheaper then the Euros and prob more reliable. Im on TLX #3 and I see a TypeS in my future.

^if you drove an F80, you would not be excited at the prospect of an m3 wagon.
If you like isolation and easy speed (read: no involvement), then maybe it's your jam. But it's gone so far in the direction of a luxury cruiser that it's no longer that 1 car-meets-all-solution quiver killer. It's lost focus.

https://www.motortrend.com/news/acura-integra-returns-2022-preview/ Surpriiiissseee 2022 integra coming. Most likely based off another platform, can't say which. Unsure if typeR variant coming. I assume it'll be 2dr coupe (but man those barely sell today). Guess my dc2 will be going up more in value lol
Will probably be based on ILX XD

Integra Prototype will make its world debut next week in Los Angeles Acura.com/Integra on Thursday, November 11, at 8:35 pm ET / 5:35 pm PT. cool story brah. should be decent...i mean a revised civic that it prob is lol but at least it's manual and hopefully retuned susp. total speculation here...A-spec comes out 2yrs post base teg launch next year. then another 1-2 years we maybe see the integra type-ARGH (of which by default i WILL have to purchase a CW coloured one to match my '98 R lol)
did someone pull the drawings of the accord crosstour out from the recycle bin? it's pretty fugly.
but hey, the civic is starting to look pretty good parked next to this new integra

lulz. i just close my eyes and ears at times.
no, it's basically a new chassis civic 5dr with minor tweaks, Si motor in this base version and 'better' interior than the honda...same as the old 'teg ideals were.
as turd ferguson as this new one looks, remeber it's not a 'remake' of the original or throwback or anything. it's a next-next gen iteration of the car, like anything built today is totally different than back then. not many brands making a fun to drive, 6spd, fwd with diff 'sporty' car. and it has to be a 4/5dr, NOBODY buys 2dr's anymore. everyone bitches for it but zero ppl buy them lmao. i do wish they redesign it closer to online prototypes i've seen, some of those look awesome (but again, they don't work with the engineers who have to build it lol).
i'm hoping the type-s and (if they make) type-R version will be better, if that's even possibly lol. i DO think they screwed up using the integra name on this car, should have just been a 'new; ILX or some other iteration. let the 'teg name RIP as we remember it...or have made a new car with closer ideals to the old version.
and yeah seeing some of the new bimmers and subies, and a few other cars on the road...designers needs to be shot. nissan and mazda snorefest, some new infinitys i hope will be decent. i find most of the honda/acura lineup is decent today, aside from a few snoozers. ironically Genesis catches my eye the most on the road today more than most makes when i see their newest cars, wow. (but i find they steal design cues from aston, jag and porsche lol)

^thats not saying much. Hello trash 1.5L turbo!!!
Always good to have more EV competition, but until all the legacy manufacturers figure out a proper charging network it’s all meaningless.
true! i haven't heard anything on their plans, curious to see wth they do lol.

Nice
February 3, 2022 — Toronto, ON.
Acura Canada and Make-A-Wish® Canada announced today that a recent online private auction of a 2022 Acura NSX Type S has led to a donation of $306,364.90, the largest, one-time, single donation the organization has received from a living donor.
The auction winners, Luc Girard and Genevičve Hardy were aware the proceeds were destined for Make-A-Wish Canada, a long-time partner of the Honda Canada Foundation. Knowing the wonderful work and impact Make-A-Wish has on children with critical illnesses, they did not hesitate to do their part by making this record setting donation.
“Having young children of our own, we can see that wishes can help grow, flourish and create hope. We are happy to be able to help many children have their wishes come true,” says Ms. Hardy.
“The strength of our partners gives way to unique moments like this one,” said Lyanne Goulin, Interim CEO, Make-A-Wish Canada. “We are so grateful to Mr. Girard and Ms. Hardy for this transformative gift that will have a direct and immediate impact on our mission. As a result of COVID-19, thousands of wishes are now waiting and donations like this help to make sure that when safer times occur, no child must wait for their already delayed wish."
The Auction
The donation plan took root in 2021 when members of the Acura Canada team decided to auction a 2022 NSX Type S – the company’s limited-edition supercar. The goal was to offer a Canadian automotive enthusiast a chance at the exclusive VIN 001, 1 of just 15, NSX Type S supercars available in Canada. All proceeds of the auction would be given to Make-A-Wish Canada for their role in granting the wishes of children and making their dreams come true.
“When we came up with the idea to auction off one of our most exclusive supercars ever, we really had no idea what to expect,” said James Marchand, Assistant Vice President, Acura Canada. “It soon became clear that someone was going to do something truly amazing, and we were ecstatic and floored by the result. In a matter of hours, over $300,000 had been raised to help bring smiles to children’s faces as their wishes come true. We want to thank Luc and Genevieve for their extremely generous donation, and we know they will love their new NSX.”

i think Canada gets about 250-280 cars...for the next few YEARS (not just 2023 model) - so yeah it'll be rare. given the economy going to shit (well rich ppl still rich) maybe you can get your hands on one dropped by a dealership over the holidays. they said they get 3 a year per dealership. this is insane... i'm surprised the limited availability of the FL5. how many FK8s were sold in Canada?
i believe just over 2800 throughout its entire model run (so maybe up that a bit if some final new ones haven't sold yet)

Honda Japan Suspends All New Orders for the Civic Type R Due to supply chain shortages and high demand.
Honda’s Type R-badged Civic is finding great success in its domestic market as it has just been announced that Honda has stopped taking orders. The FL5 Civic Type R was released back in July in Japan where it was met with a surprising amount of pre-orders. Coupled with long-term supply chain shortages, Honda indicated that it will “temporarily” pause all new orders and future production will be difficult to predict.
While this measure is sure to disappoint a lot of those in Japan, the move from Honda ensures that all that have placed their orders receive their coveted Type R on time. Those that have just ordered before the cut-off period are expected to wait up to a year for delivery. The good news is that Honda US is not affected, but as you know, getting ahold of one of these FL5s Stateside has its own set of challenges.

availability? or limited like typeR?
i am curious about its curb weight
lol man everything is 'limited' these days, even odysseys or ridgelines given how long it takes to actually get one. but yeah type-S for Canada i'm sure will be limited numbers, maybe even less than CTR since it's an Acura.
weight not sure, prob 100-200 lbs over the ctr? just a guess though. still, not an issue for these types of cars when you drive them.

in Canada i think dealers can't go slapping on markups for NEW cars.
that being said i think what many do (from any brand) is drive it a bit as a "demo", so it's been registered and all. then they turn around in a day and put it for sale as a used demo, bam they can mark it up whatever they want. fucked.
honestly tho tables are starting to turn with the market cooling and recession coming on, in addition to still high inflation...ppl are not buying like during covid. new cars starting to sit a bit and thus that is driving down demand for used cars being snatched up too. all-in-all prices SHOULD start to chill the fuck out into 2024. interest rates play a huge factor too.
